"You will have significant experiences. I hope that you will write them down and keep record of them, that you will read them from time to time and refresh your memory of those meaningful and significant things. Some may be funny. Some may be significant only to you. Some of them may be sacred and quietly beautiful. Some may build one upon another until they represent a lifetime of special experiences." — Gordon B. Hinckley

5K Run


What a great day!! Several weeks ago JM informed me
of a 5K run if I wanted to do it!
YES!
The last time I did a 5K it was with Raychel so I asked
her if she would like to run another one, she did!!
I couldn't help but feel on overwhelming love and pride for
Raychel as she made this choice.
It was a perfect day to run, not to hot and not to cold.
The sky was a beautiful shade of blue, the birds were singing and
the wind was calm.
We didn't set any records but we finished. We had set goals before
we started and we can proudly say we kept them!!
There is something so spiritual about running for me, or
just being out walking. To be in the world a loving Heavenly
Father created, to not be interrupted by phones, TV or people.
To be one in nature, to take all my worries, fears, and frustrations out on the
road. I always come back so renewed and refreshed, I
can hand life again.


Our little cheer leader!
We finished!! Walking over to Ward and Jolene.

I am so very proud of you and Raychel. Maybe next year Jolene will be going with you as well.
